Artificial Intelligence for Science

Report

Science is having an AI boom

A world-first report, Artificial Intelligence for Science has found the world is amid the largest boom in the application and development of AI for scientific research in history.

Discover how AI is accelerating innovation

What we've been up to

Companion Collar

After releasing 'a fit bit for cows' in 2018, Ceres Tag in collaboration with CSIRO's Data61 are developing a prototype smart tracker for cats and dogs. The Companion Collar will be able to track an animal's movements in real-time, sending updates to the owner's phone whenever their pet wanders outside of a virtual boundary they established.

Chatbot app for therapy

We’ve developed a unique smartphone chatbot app that uses artificial intelligence to provide at-home social and communication therapy.

Astronomy and space

All Astronomy and space

Closing in on fast radio bursts

Astronomers around the world are using our radio telescopes to uncover what causes 'fast radio bursts'.

Phased array feeds

We've developed a specialised 'camera' for our newest radio telescope that dramatically increases how quickly it can survey the sky, and offers enormous potential for other applications.

Land degradation reporting

We led a global effort to develop mapping methods adopted by the United Nations that make it easier for countries to track land cover change.

Spark: Predicting bushfire spread

Spark is a toolkit for the end-to-end processing, simulation and analysis of bushfires, with AI playing a key role.

Vision processing for the bionic eye

By extracting and conveying key visual information about the world, the quality of life of bionic eye users can be improved. The project aims to restore functional vision for the blind by developing a bionic retinal prosthesis system that delivers visual information to the brain.

Assessing breast density automatically

We've worked with the University of Melbourne to develop software to help identify women at higher risk of breast cancer and women potentially suited to personalised cancer screening strategies. This work was a merit recipient in the R&D category of the New South Wales iAwards 2015.

Enabling analytics of sensitive datasets for the benefit of society

"The more data the better" is a recurring request from organisations when it comes to mining data sets to solve complex problems. However, in unique cases, being exposed to too much data can be harmful to one's mental health when working on the data-driven front line.

Eight tips on staying cyber safe during COVID-19

As the majority of us continue to work from home and we use our phone or computer to stay in touch with family, friends and colleagues, ensuring your cyber safety is not only crucial but possible with these eight tips.

PhishZip: A new compression-based algorithm for detecting phishing websites

Phishing has grown significantly since 2010 and is currently experiencing a huge surge during the COVID-19 pandemic. The dynamics of phishing attacks makes it highly challenging to implement a robust phishing detection system. However, a novel method is changing that.

Data

Coronavirus data driven research and technology

From advanced analytics, simulation and modelling, scenario planning to robotics – our research is helping to understand how the virus behaves, simulate its spread and help industries adapt.

Keeping your data private

Our data experts on why it's so important to keep your data private, how you can protect it, and the trade-off between personalised content and an individual's privacy online.

Pain intervention app

We’ve teamed up with Metro North Hospital and Health Service and the University of Queensland to develop a mobile platform for pain intervention.

Robotics

All robotics

Magneto

Magneto represents the next generation of maintenance and inspection robots that can minimise risk and increase safety in the industrial workforce, particularly around confined space entry.

DARPA Challenge

CSIRO's Data61's Robotics and Autonomous Systems Group is one of 11 teams selected worldwide to participate in the three-year DARPA Subterranean challenge, and is the only Australian entity. The challenge, funded by the US's Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency, aims to explore new approaches to rapidly map, navigate, and search underground environments.

Robots for therapy & education

We're trialling social robots as tools to support education and therapy for children on the autism spectrum.

Energy

Electricity transition

Electrification using renewables is essential to decarbonising Australia’s energy sector. Accelerating how we do this to deliver reliable, affordable and safe electricity, provides time for hard-to-abate sectors to respond.

Decarbonising industry and transport

Decarbonising industry and transport is complex, challenging and more than electrification. Our research is helping these sectors achieve emission goals through integrating low carbon solutions.

Carbon management technologies

Achieving net-zero emissions will require affordable and secure technologies at scale to manage historic emissions as well as those generated in hard to abate sectors.

Information technology

All information technology

Lab-on-a-chip

We have developed two field-deployable handheld devices for emergency first responders to detect and identify chemical and biological agents in potential terrorist situations.

Virga

Our advanced, energy efficient computing cluster will help grow Australia’s science, industry and economy.

Bringing fast wireless connectivity to the world

We invented and patented wireless local area network (WLAN) technology in the 1990s – a breakthrough that underpins modern WiFi and has transformed how the world connects without wires.
